[jdev] Looking for a good Java API

[Chris Chen]

You can also try Echomine Muse at http://open.echomine.org/

I recently released a new version of Muse so you can try it out.  And 
with the recent new changes to Echomine, I would have to disagree and 
say that Muse has better documentation than most other Java APIs at the 
moment.

Thanks,
Chris
